Is it me, or is Super Monkey Ball ridiculously hard to control on the iPhone? Am I doing something wrong?

Asked by richardhenry (12692points) July 12th, 2008

At first, I thought it was a problem with the accelerometer, but MotoRacer, Labyrinth and the other accelerometer-based games worked just fine.

It was several hours before I realised that you don’t hold the phone level and roll the monkey in the ball across the surface; you hold the phone slightly upwards, and lean the phone to the left or right to turn the ball in that direction.

Am I doing something wrong, or are the controls really this unintuitive?
